Abstract
In this paper, we investigated the properties of chalcogenide glass thin films formed by photo-inducing for use in 1-dimensional photonic crystals. We used Ag-doped amorphous As-Ge-Se-S thin films which belongs in the chalcogenide materials having sensitive photoluminescence properties. The purpose of this experiment is to form the holographic lattice for 1-dimensional photonic crystals. The way in which photo-induce into the amorphous chalcogenide thin films is holographic lithography method. We confirmed the formation of diffraction lattice by sensing the existence of diffraction beam and measured the diffraction efficiency. The results suggest that there is an application possibility with photonic crystals.
